The four members of Blameshift have been blazing their independent path across the nation over the better part of 5 years. During that time the band could easily have taught a collegiate level course on band survival. With a high powered list of sponsors, their music as a full time job and a tour bus, (a literal bus), powered by vegetable oil, the band headed across the country to Los Angeles in 2010 to record with Erik Ron, (VersaEmerge, Good Charlotte, Panic at the Disco). What resulted was the full commercially driven sound that Blameshift has been envisioning since their inception. Collectively, the quartet has logged close to 500 shows in their young lives, including many dates the past years on the Vans Warped Tour 11 independently booked national tours and 2 years playing SXSW.

They have already been recognized by Alternative Press Magazine as one of their “Best Unsigned Bands” chosen by Airwalk & Alternative Press Magazine as the top ten bands for the Unsigned Hero’s Contest. With their new album being released in early 2011, Blameshift will most certainly be bringing their blue collar brand of DIY music to a national prominence.
